OPINION

Sun closure: Sad to see the Sun go

Larry Burchall: Sad to see the Sun go, especially the way that it has.

Sun closure: We’ll miss the Sun

Bryant Trew: Over its lifespan, the Bermuda Sun has provided superb news coverage while also providing an alternative platform for social commentary.

Sun closure: Businesses have no intrinsic interest in a free press

Jonathan Starling: At the moment, and I think the demise of the Sun is symbolic of it, journalism, as an institution, appears to be in freefall in Bermuda today.

Sun closure: Public reflects on a ‘sad day’

In our last Viewpoint, Carla Zuill asked residents how they feel that the Bermuda Sun will no longer be in existence.

Sun closure: Grateful to have been a part of the Sun

Shawnette Somner: With the Bermuda Sun having just celebrated 50 years of life in the community, the demise of the paper now reflects the sadness of death to me.

Sun closure: The Sun told stories of relationships

Elaine Murray: The Sun has told the story of political battles, scandals; deaths and destruction; and sometimes that only filled just one day’s worth of newsprint.

Sun closure: A special salute to my mentor

Christopher Famous: For most of us, we have grown up knowing we could always rely on the Bermuda Sun to give us a fair and balanced view of the current happenings in our island home.

TV classics: Kids raved over it

Phillip Ingham: You can have Disco 40 and the forty thieves, a man half human and half machine running at 60 miles an hour was everything to this little munchkin.

Bermuda Blue: Why we should all take time to chill out this Cup Match

Jeremy Deacon: I'm glad Cup Match is just around the corner, not because it’s four days off or the fact that I am intending to spend those four days sleeping in front of the TV.

Could the script get any worse?

Tony Brannon: I cannot stand by and watch the government implode in front of our eyes without saying something.

The bank knew more than voters

Elaine Murray: If a bank calls you asking about an American consultant attempting to open a local account, no matter that he has a work permit, a red flag should have gone up and you should have asked a few questions.

Photo-op Premier is all talk and no action

Christopher Famous: Now the OBA has spoken loud and clear; the message to Bermudians is that our voice is not worthy of hearing.

The OBA is looking out for non-Bermudians

Michael Weeks: In recent weeks, we have witnessed the OBA exhibit behaviours that clearly indicate which Bermuda they do not represent: Mr and Mrs Hardworking, Grassroots, Everyday Bermudian.

Letter: Famous’ view of Cup Match ‘is tainted’

Makai Dickerson: Let it be known that I stated here publicly, that Wednesday’s opinion piece by Christopher Famous is a travesty. It is an insult and poison to the mind of all rightful thinking people.

Pity the OBA investigation was the result of spin control

Jonathan Starling: Despite the apparent wishful thinking (or perhaps delirium?) of some, the ‘JetGate’ scandal is far from becoming ‘DeadGate’.
